At the end of the vast flat lands of southern Sweden, at the edge of the Baltic Sea, lies the small town of Åhus. This is the setting for ateljé Lyktan, a lighting manufacturer with an 90-year long history and an archive of lights that have defined Swedish design over the last century. By creating innovative, energy efficient and sustainable lighting solutions adapted to people’s requirements and with the least possible impact on the environment, ateljé Lyktan contributes to, and takes responsibility for, a sustainable development within society in general.

From hemp to lamp. More than just an evolution of ateljé Lyktans classic luminaire, the Supertube, the Superdupertube represents their commitment to sustainability and material exploration. Just as the Supertube in the 1970s was groundbreaking for its time, the Superdupertube is a tool for navigating towards a circular economy. Together with Snøhetta, ateljé Lyktan have refined every aspect of the product - from design to manufacturing - to minimize its environmental footprint. They have carefully considered every step in the lifecycle, from raw materials to recycling. The Superdupertube is not just a product; it is a statement of our commitment to sustainability and responsibility.

Studio About wants to inspire more creative and
experimental self-expression, therefore they keep

design philosophy.

Founded in 2019, MOTARASU creates lighting, furniture and interior that calls for being present in the now. Fusing the design heritage of Denmark with the aesthetics of Japanese craftsmanship, the efforts are focused on the philosophy of surrounding oneself with few yet beautiful, high-quality objects that bring joy.
Closeness to nature is fundamental to all MOTARASU designs, where material and techniques combine to create tactile and sculptural objects that each place natural materials central to both design and functionality.

During 3daysofdesign MOTARASU launches the new CHO lamp series by Ernst & Jensen. Furthermore new lamps by Tani Toshiyuki will be launched.

Since its inception in 2013, Signe Byrdal Terenziani has facilitated the growth of the design community in her role as Managing Director. It all began as a small design event held in an old warehouse in Nordhavn, a harbour area overlooking Copenhagen’s waterfront. Four Danish brands launched the event as a joint initiative: Montana, Erik Jørgensen (now owned by Fredericia Furniture), Anker & Co, and Kvadrat. At that time, Copenhagen lacked a proper design festival, since the previous annual furniture fair at Bella Center closed down some years before.

Today, the 3daysofdesign festival extends to the entire city of Copenhagen and is considered the most significant annual design festival in Scandinavia.

Each year since its inception, 3daysofdesign has grown in popularity exponentially. In 2023, over 250 brands exhibited at the festival, where visitors could choose from as many as 500 events to attend in various design districts across Copenhagen, such as design talks, networking events, etc.

3daysofdesign takes place every year in Copenhagen mainly during the second week of June from Wednesday to Friday. In 2025 the festival will be held from 4 - 6 June.

Pack your bags, book a hotel and come to Copenhagen! 3daysofdesign is open to the general public and everyone is invited to visit the showrooms, exhibitions, workshops and design talks.
